  3. What do cat needs? • Cat owners should choose the food that contains all the essential nutrients that the cat needs to meet up his body requirement. Select the food that promote the good health of the cat. Cat foods are made for kittens, adult cats and the pregnant cats. There are different foods for every breed and every age of the cat but be careful that all food should contain essential nutrients (water, proteins, fatty acids, minerals and vitamins).

  4. Type of cat food: We can divide cat food into 3 main categories: • Dry Food: Dry food contains approximately 6-10% moisture and can help to keep the teeth and gums clean, and keeps them healthy. Dry foods have a long shelf life. Food that contains 34-38% protein and 19-22% fat provides a healthy balance. • Soft - Moist Food: It contains about 23-40% moisture. Cat owners prefer it because it is convenient and has a long shelf life. Soft-moist foods are more expensive than dry foods. Soft-moist foods contain a lot of preservatives, so you must be careful. • Canned Food: Canned food contains approximately 68-70% moisture and most cats like it most of all other foods. However, it is not recommended to feed your cat with canned food only because it sticks to the cat's teeth and this may lead to dental problems.

  5. Tips about feeding your cat: • Following are the tips about feeding your cat. TIP # 1: Cats that live free in the wild eat grass every day. Domestic cats will also eat grass if they have the opportunity, so cat owners should provide sources of green vegetation for their cats. TIP # 2: Milk is a food, not a drink. The only drink that cats use is water. Milk is a good source of calcium and phosphorus which make bones and teeth stronger. It also provides many vitamins and minerals. However, you should keep in mind that many cats cannot digest milk as they grow older. TIP # 3: Provide your cat with varied food. You can mix some of the new food with the old for 3-5 days in order to make gradual changes

Tip # 5: If you have more cats, you should provide each of them with a separate food bowl and you shouldn't keep them close to each other while they are eating, because cats compete for their food and feel uncomfortable if they are too close to one another
